Dajti Mountain / Dajti Ekspres Cable Car (Parku Kombëtar Dajti)
Best time to visit
Early morning or late afternoon for clearer views and softer light, avoid midday haze; spring and autumn offer mild temperatures and colourful vegetation.
Budget tips
Roundtrip cable car tickets are modest, typically around €4–6 per adult with reduced fares for children and students; no regular free days are common. Buy tickets at the base station, bring cash as card machines can be unreliable, and skip the summit restaurant for a picnic to save money.

About
Fakta singkat: Sun-warmed pines perfume the air as you step onto the ridge, and the panorama opens into a dramatic patchwork of dense forest, craggy outcrops, and tiny rooftops below. A ride up the cable car feels like slipping into a living postcard, the gondola climbing steeply enough to give startlingly close views of cliffs, shepherds' paths, and seasonal wildflower carpets.
Sorotan: Take the roughly 15-minute cable car up to the peak at 1,613 meters, where pine-scented air and a checkerboard of red roofs unfurl below like a living map. On weekends locals haul picnic baskets and around 5:30 p.m. a handbell is rung to mark sunset, a quirky ritual that turns the viewing terrace into a communal living room.
Insider tips
- Dress in layers, summit is often noticeably cooler and windier than the city.
- Stand on the side facing Tirana during ascent for the best panoramic city photos.
- Visit on weekdays or immediately after opening to avoid peak crowds and long ticket lines.
- Buy a return ticket at the base to save time and check the cable car schedule before planning sunset visits.
